The music I have purchased on my MacBook Pro, isn't showing up in iMovie. I have the song downloaded and have gone to iTunes preferences and allowed my iTunes library to share with other applications. Also, my playlist are appearing in iMovie, but none of the songs. How do I fix this?

Hi, Amelia,
You said that your iTunes songs were "downloaded". To make sure we are on the same page, your iTunes music must be downloaded to the physical iTunes library in order to be accessible by iMovie. They won't be accessible if they are stored in the cloud. You would need to download them from the cloud.
If your songs are in fact downloaded to the iTunes library itself, try opening iMovie while holding down the Option and Command keys and selecting to delete preferences in the box that appears. iMovie will open in a new library. Reopen your old library to access your projects. Then see if the iTunes songs appear.
